How this is measured

Stream a Certificate Transparency log, parse each leaf, compute not_after − not_before. Population unit: certificate; segmented by CA.

Built entirely from public bulk feeds — no target is contacted. Aggregate-only. 95% Wilson confidence intervals. Population: certificates newly issued and logged to Certificate Transparency, grouped by issuing CA. Snapshot: ct-recent-12000.

Why it matters

The same deadline seen from the supply side. It shows which CAs have already moved their customers to automated short-lived issuance and which are still writing certificates that will be non-compliant — a per-CA readiness table nobody else publishes.

Limits of this measurement

Measured over a sample of recent issuance, so it reflects current practice rather than the installed base. The 47-day threshold was chosen after a 100-day cut returned 0% everywhere — issuance had already moved below it, leaving no variance to observe.
